Monday, February 12-Friday, February 16: Book Week in Celebration of Children’s Literature

Wednesday, February 14-Thursday, February 15: Grandparents/Special Friends Days

We want to extend our thanks to everyone who donated food during Jim McCutcheon’s residency. This is so appreciated by teachers and artists alike! There are still many containers and dishes in the South Side kitchen; we kindly ask that parents pick these up at their earliest convenience.

Also, many thanks to all who made it to the celebration of Jim’s time with us. What a fun night of making music together! We look forward to welcoming Jim back on Monday, 1/29 to compensate for the day we missed due to bad weather.

We hope to see you this Thursday at 6:30 p.m. in the Gathering Place for a celebration of his residency. It is a fun night of music and fellowship that you don’t want to miss!

The 29th Annual Young Masters exhibit, featuring artwork from local students, opened last Tuesday evening, January 16th. Overfield has a showing of 17 drawings and paintings on display made by our talented K/1 students.

Our featured artists enjoyed viewing their own art as well each other’s works. There were many Overfield alumni in attendance at the opening who also have art on display. You can read articles about the exhibit in Dayton Daily News and in the Troy Daily News. The show runs through February 25; hours are posted on Hayner’s website. We hope many of you will have a chance to view this wonderful exhibit of children’s art!
